Here are some specs and a rear end view of one of them. Making 250 cars of each Blackwing model. Reveal at 7 pm tomorrow night. https://www.thedrive.com/news/38945/2022-cadillac-ct4-v-ct5-v-blackwing-powertrain-options-leak-from-dealers-report
I'm good for now in the Blackwing Dept. Shot these pics a moment ago. You can see the upside-down COVID reflection on top of the rear bumper. Raining in NC today. STS has alot of leaves slipped inside the front fenders. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Anyone going to try to preorder one tonight? I’m going to try to pick up a CT5 V Blackwing at some point, I think, but I’ll wait till they start with the discounts and allow supplier discounts to be used as well.
Cadillac's development team codename for the Blackwing was "darkmeat". It better look as good from behind as what we're used to. Image Unavailable, Please Login
You and me both. Other than v6 vs V8, I’m not sure- I think CT4 is a bit smaller. CT5 is about 3 series size (bit larger?)? I wish the CT5 was more midsize, like a 5 series.
Looking close at it, the Blackwing is a Regal GS which Buick just discontinued. It's also the Malibu. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Meh, better than that, but not beautiful. Having said that- 668HP with a manual. Last pure ICE product, Cadillac has said all future product is hybrid and electric, only 1 year production. Should be fun and might hold value (if manual CTS V products, especially those wagons, are any indication)
I owned a '20 CT6-V for about six months. We negotiated a buy-back from GM for the original purchase price. One of the fuel pumps went bad and it took seven weeks, yes, seven weeks to replace.

wow , too bad. I was considering a CT6-V when they were coming out , I had a CTS-V coupe that I wish I didn't replace to go suv, I just didn't want to wait I picked up something else. I'm disappointed in Caddy , I thought they were on a roll with the full size V versions. I thought they should've put a V engine in the Escalade. Too bad they seemed to go full opposite and downside with those ATS versions . Had an ATS as a loaner and thought too small , not good quality compared to predecessor . Now all their V's are small 4 door - wth? And their marketing of them tries to come across as cool hand Luke in the space. If I'm playing sports racer I want 2 door not 4.
Love my 05 CTS-V. If I wasn’t seriously looking at getting an airplane I’d be all over one of these. Not many manuals left.
The new M3/M4 is truly terrible to look at. I just sat in a CT5 today, the back seat headroom is not great. Interior is meh. Now, on the fence, might give up my spot.
CT4/5-V Blackwing are going to disrupt the waters of that segment. Great to see the V back in a good way.
I had a 2010 and a 2013 CTSV new drove about 50000 miles on each and they were great cars .but now I love my E63S
I ordered one of the 250 CT5-V Blackwing ... currently have a 2018 CTS-V ... I came out of the previous 3 E63s (great cars) and M5 and M3 before that ... it was the V8 with a manual that sold me, that simple. 2018 is a great chassis, but a terrible transmission.
ordered mine yesterday and they sent the order in ... will have to see this thing against my FF to see what it will do.
